Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen schachtelartigen Behälter für einzelverpackte Süßwaren wie beispielsweise Hartkaramelen, Stollwerke, Pralinen, Bonbons u.dgl..The invention relates to a box-like container for individually packaged Confectionery such as hard caramels, crushed stones, chocolates, sweets and the like.

Einzelverpackte Süßwaren der genannten Art werden in sackartigen oder in schachtelartigen Behältern feilgeboten. Die sackartigen Behälter werden zur Entnahme der Süßwaren aufgerissen oder aufgeschnitten. Die schachtelartigen Behälter besitzen in der Regel eine Entnahmeöffnung, die mittels eines Deckels wiederholbar verschlossen werden kann. Das Einwickelpapier oder die Einwickelfolie, in der die einzelnen Süßwaren eingepackt und eingewickelt sind, wird nach der Entnahme der Süßware häufig bedenkenlos weggeworfen.Individually packaged confectionery of the type mentioned are in sack-like or in box-like containers offered for sale. The sack-like containers are used for removal of the confectionery torn open or cut open. The box-like containers usually have a removal opening that can be repeated using a lid can be locked. The wrapping paper or foil, in The individual confectionery is wrapped and wrapped up after removal the confectionery is often thrown away without hesitation.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen schachtelartigen Behälter für die genannten Waren in der Weise auszubilden, daß die Einwickelfolie oder das Einwickelpapier nach der Entnahme der einzelnen Süßwaren wieder vom Behälter aufgenommen werden kann, ohne daß die in der Regel zerknüllten Einwickelpapiere oder Einwickelfolien mit der ursprünglich verpackten Ware vermengt wird.Starting from this prior art, the invention is based on the object a box-like container for the said goods in the way form that the wrapping film or wrapping paper after removal of the individual confectionery can be taken up again from the container without that the usually crumpled wrapping paper or wrapping film with the originally packaged goods are mixed.

In diesem Zusammenhang ist die US-PS 1 562 497 zu erwähnen, die eine Zigaretten-bzw. Zigarrenschachtel zeigt mit einem zweiteiligen Schubteil. Der eine Schubteil nimmt die Zigaretten bzw. Zigarren auf, der andere Schubteil ist als Aschenbehälter vorgesehen. Der Schubteil für die Aufnahme der Asche ist gegenüber dem Schubteil für die Aufnahme der Zigaretten bzw. Zigarren verschiebbar. Bei einem anderen vergleichbaren Vorschlag (FR-PS 2 661 897) sind in einem beidseitig offenen Schachtelgehäuse zwei nebeneinander liegende Schubteile relativ zueinander verschiebbar. Im einen Schubteil liegen Streichhölzer, vom anderen Schubteil sind beispielsweise Pastillen aufgenommen. Das Schachtelgehäuse ist beidseitig offen. Die beiden Schubteile können gleichzeitig miteinander oder in entgegengesetzte Richtungen verschoben werden. Die US-PS 1 791 094 zeigt ebenfalls ein Schachtelgehäuse mit zwei Schubteilen, jedoch sind hier die beiden Schubteile in Schieberichtung gesehen hintereinander liegend angeordnet. Die EP 350 739 A1 zeigt und beschreibt ein Raucherwarenbehältnis. An diesem Raucherwarenbehältnis für die Aufnahme einer Zigarettenschachtel ist ein Zusatzbehältnis angebracht. Dieses Zusatzbehältnis dient zur Aufnahme der Raucherwarenabfälle. Das Zusatzbehältnis kann fest mit dem Raucherwarenbehältnis verbunden sein oder aber von diesem lösbar angeordnet sein. Allen diesen vorbekannten Maßnahmen und Konstruktionen ist im wesentlichen gemeinsam, daß die jeweils mehrfach vorgesehenen Aufnahmeräume hinsichtlich ihrer Größe vorgegeben und nicht veränderbar sind und damit das schachtelartige Gehäuse entsprechend große Abmessungen aufweisen muß, um diese Aufnahmeräume aufzunehmen.In this context, the US-PS 1 562 497 is to be mentioned, which a cigarette or. Cigar box shows with a two-part drawer. The one The push part takes the cigarettes or cigars, the other push part is as Ashtray provided. The thrust part for the ashes is opposite the sliding part for receiving the cigarettes or cigars. In another comparable proposal (FR-PS 2 661 897) are in one box housing open on both sides relative to each other two sliding parts slidable to each other. There are matches in one drawer and the other Pastilles are included for example. The box case is open on both sides. The two thrust parts can be together or in parallel opposite directions are shifted. U.S. Patent 1,791,094 shows also a box case with two sliding parts, but here are the two Thrust parts arranged one behind the other as seen in the sliding direction. The EP 350 739 A1 shows and describes a smoked goods container. On this smoky goods container there is an additional container for a cigarette box appropriate. This additional container is used to hold the tobacco waste. The additional container can be firmly connected to the smokers' goods container be or be arranged detachable from this. All of these previously known Measures and constructions are essentially common to each multiple specified recording rooms with regard to their size and cannot be changed and the box-like housing is accordingly large Must have dimensions to accommodate these receiving spaces.

Zur Lösung der eingangs aufgezeigten Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung jene Maßnahmen vor, die Gegenstand und Inhalt des Patentanspruches 1 sind. Zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen festgehalten.The invention proposes those measures to achieve the object indicated at the outset before, the subject and content of the claim 1 are. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are in the subclaims captured.

Um die Erfindung zu veranschaulichen, werden anhand der Zeichnung mehrere Ausführungsbeispiele erörtert, ohne dadurch die Erfindung auf eben diese Ausführungsbeispiele einzuschränken. Es zeigen:
Die Fig. 1, 2 und 3 einen schachtelartigen Behälter in Ansicht, Seitensicht und Untersicht; die Fig. 4 bis 7 verschiedene Ausführungsformen für die Ausbildung und Anordnung der Querwand, wobei die Behälter im Vertikalschnitt dargestellt sind; Fig. 8 den Behälter nach Fig. 1 aufgerissen, wobei der Behälter sowohl einzelverpackte Süßwaren wie auch zerknülltes Einwickelpapier beinhaltet.In order to illustrate the invention, several exemplary embodiments are discussed on the basis of the drawing, without thereby restricting the invention to precisely these exemplary embodiments. Show it:
Figures 1, 2 and 3 a box-like container in view, side view and bottom view. 4 to 7 different embodiments for the design and arrangement of the transverse wall, the containers being shown in vertical section; 8 shows the container according to FIG. 1, the container containing both individually packaged confectionery and crumpled wrapping paper.

Der schachtelartige Behälter 1 nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 hat beispielsweise die Größe einer üblichen Zigarettenschachtel und einen aufklappbaren Deckel 2, der um die Achse 3 verschwenkbar ist. Dieser Deckel 2 verschließt die obere Entnahmeöffnung, über die die im Behälter befindlichen, einzelverpackten Süßwaren entnommen werden können. Für die gegenständliche Erfindung ist aber weder die quaderförmige Gestalt des Behälters noch der hier gezeigte verschwenkbare Deckel 2 wesentlich. Der Behälter kann auch andere Formen aufweisen und andere Entnahmeöffnungen. In der unteren Schmalseite 4 des Behälters 1 ist ein selbsttätig verschließbare Öffnung vorgesehen, die durch mehrere sich kreuzende Einschnitte 5 gebildet ist, die im wesentlichen dreieckförmige, mit ihren Spitzen einander zugewandte Lappen begrenzen. Die äußeren Enden dieser Einschnitte 5 liegen auf einer gedachten, umfangsgeschlossenen Linie, die diese Öffnung 6 begrenzen. In den Querschnittsdarstellungen nach den Fig. 4 bis 8 ist diese Öffnung 6 jeweils durch eine strichpunktierte Linie 7 angedeutet. The box-like container 1 according to FIGS. 1 to 3 has the size, for example a usual cigarette box and a hinged lid 2, which around the Axis 3 is pivotable. This cover 2 closes the upper removal opening, from the individually packaged confectionery in the container can be. However, neither the cuboid is for the present invention The shape of the container and the pivotable lid 2 shown here essential. The container can also have other shapes and other removal openings. In the lower narrow side 4 of the container 1 is an automatic closable opening provided by several intersecting incisions 5 is formed, the substantially triangular, with their tips facing each other Limit rag. The outer ends of these incisions 5 lie on an imaginary, circumferentially closed line that delimit this opening 6. In 4 to 8, this opening 6 is in each case the cross-sectional representations according to FIGS indicated by a dash-dotted line 7.

Im Inneren des Behälters 1 (Fig. 4) ist nun eine Querwand 8 vorgesehen, die aus einem Streifen aus verformbarem Material, beispielsweise aus Karton gebildet ist und die sich über die untere Schmalseite 4 des Behälters 1 erstreckt sowie über einen benachbarten Wandteil 9 und deren Enden 10 mit dem Behälter 1 verbunden, beispielsweise verklebt sind. Von der Seite gesehen (Fig. 4) ist diese Querwand 8 L-förmig, beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 5 ist diese Querwand 8 - von der Seite gesehen - U-förmig, wobei die Enden 10 der beiden Schenkel 11 ebenfalls mit dem Behälter 1 verbunden, beispielsweise verklebt sind. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 6 ist die Querwand 8 aus einem elastischen Material gefertigt und von der Seite gesehen U-förmig, doch liegen hier die Schenkel 11 unter leichtem Druck an den Wandteilen 9 des Behälters 1 an. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 7 ist die Öffnung 6 (strichlierte Linie 7) seitlich versetzt und die Querwand 8 ist auch hier (von der Seite gesehen) L-förmig. Die Breite der einzelnen Querwände 8 entspricht ungefähr der lichten inneren Weite des Behälters 1, sie ist zweckmäßig um ein geringes Maß kleiner als diese.In the interior of the container 1 (FIG. 4), a transverse wall 8 is now provided, which consists of a strip of deformable material, for example made of cardboard and which extends over the lower narrow side 4 of the container 1 and over one adjacent wall part 9 and its ends 10 connected to the container 1, are glued, for example. Seen from the side (FIG. 4), this transverse wall is 8 L-shaped, in the embodiment of FIG. 5, this transverse wall 8 - of the Seen from the side - U-shaped, the ends 10 of the two legs 11 also connected to the container 1, for example glued. In the embodiment 6, the transverse wall 8 is made of an elastic material and seen from the side U-shaped, but here the legs 11 are below slight pressure on the wall parts 9 of the container 1. In the embodiment 7, the opening 6 (dashed line 7) is laterally offset and the Transverse wall 8 is also L-shaped (seen from the side). The width of each Transverse walls 8 corresponds approximately to the clear inner width of the container 1, it is expedient to be slightly smaller than this.

Bei den Ausführungsbeispielen nach den Fig. 4, 5 und 7 ist die Querwand 8 jeweils aus einem leicht verformbaren Material, beispielsweise aus dünnem Karton gefertigt. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 6 ist die Querwand zweckmäßigerweise aus Kunststoff gefertigt.4, 5 and 7, the transverse wall 8 is in each case made of an easily deformable material, such as thin cardboard manufactured. 6, the transverse wall is expedient made of plastic.

Beim vorerst noch ungebrauchten und unbenutzten Behälter 1 liegt diese Querwand 8 bzw. ein Abschnitt derselben derjenigen Wand des Behälters 1 unmittelbar benachbart, in der die Öffnung 6 vorgesehen ist, so daß der gesamte Innenraum des Behälters 1 einzelverpackte Süßwaren aufnehmen kann.When the container 1 is still unused and unused, this transverse wall is located 8 or a section of that wall of the container 1 directly adjacent, in which the opening 6 is provided, so that the entire interior of the container can hold 1 individually packaged confectionery.

Fig. 8 zeigt nun, teilweise aufgerissen, einen angebrochenen Behälter nach Fig. 1. Es ist aus dieser Darstellung ersichtlich, daß oberhalb der verformten Querwand 8 noch einzelverpackte Süßwaren 12 sich im Behälter 1 befinden. Drei solcher Süßwaren sind bereits entnommen worden, ihr Einwickelpapier wurde zerknüllt und dann durch die sich selbsttätig verschließende Öffnung 6 (strichlierte Linie 7) wieder in den Behälter 1 gesteckt. Diese zerknüllten und wieder in den Behälter 1 eingesteckten Einwickelpapiere 13 sind durch die sich verformende Querwand 8 von den Süßwaren 12 getrennt. Bei den Ausführungsbeispielen nach den Fig. 4, 5 und 7 wird durch das Einbringen der zerknüllten Einwickelpapiere 13 die Querwand 8 verformt, wobei diese Querwand 8 eine sich allmählich vergrößernde Kammer 14 begrenzt, wogegen die andere Kammer 15, in der sich die Anzahl der Süßwaren 12 allmählich durch deren Entnahme verringert, kleiner wird (Fig. 8). FIG. 8 now shows, partially torn open, a opened container according to FIG. 1. It can be seen from this illustration that above the deformed transverse wall 8 individually packaged confectionery 12 is still in the container 1. Three such Confectionery has already been removed and its wrapping paper has been crumpled up and then through the automatically closing opening 6 (dashed line 7) put back in container 1. These crumpled up and back into the container 1 inserted wrapping papers 13 are through the deforming transverse wall 8th separated from the confectionery 12. 4, 5 and 7 becomes the transverse wall by inserting the crumpled wrapping papers 13 8 deformed, this transverse wall 8 a gradually increasing Chamber 14 limited, whereas the other chamber 15, in which the number of Confectionery 12 gradually decreases as it is removed, becomes smaller (Fig. 8).

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 6 wird die Querwand durch das Einbringen der zerknüllten Einwickelpapiere allmählich verschoben, hier behält die Querwand 8 ihre Form im wesentlichen bei, sie ändert nur ihre Lage innerhalb des Behälters 1.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 6, the transverse wall is introduced of the crumpled wrapping papers gradually shifted, here the transverse wall retains 8 essentially its shape, it only changes its position within the container 1.

Dank des erfindungsgemäßen Vorschlages kann der Behälter 1 bzw. sein durch seine Form und Größe vorgegebenes Volumen zur Gänze als Füllraum für die Süßwaren verwendet werden trotz des hohen Füllgrades wird hinreichend Platz geschaffen für die Aufnahme der zerknüllten Einwickelpapiere. Da sich die Öffnung 6 durch die hier beschriebene Ausgestaltung selbsttätig verschließt, werden die zerknüllten und in den Behälter eingebrachten Einwickelpapiere 13 sicher und verläßlich aufgenommen.Thanks to the proposal according to the invention, the container 1 or can be through its shape and size given volume entirely as a filling space for the Confectionery is used despite the high filling level, there is sufficient space created to hold the crumpled wrapping papers. Because the opening 6 closes automatically due to the configuration described here the crumpled wrapping papers 13 placed in the container safely and reliably recorded.

Anstelle eines aufklappbaren Deckels, wie in den Fig. 1 und 2 gezeigt, könnte hier auch eine ausklappbare Lasche zur Entnahme der Süßwaren 12 vorgesehen werden, wie sie beispielsweise bekannt ist bei schachtelartigen Verpackungen, in welchen schüttfähige Materialien sich befinden. Zweckmäßigerweise sind die selbsttätig sich schließende Öffnung 6 und die Entnahmeöffnung an einander gegenüberliegenden Abschnitten des Behälters 1 vorgesehen. Instead of a hinged lid, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, could here a fold-out tab for removing the confectionery 12 can also be provided, as it is known for example in box-like packaging, in which pourable materials. These are expediently automatic closing opening 6 and the removal opening on opposite one another Sections of the container 1 are provided.
